The hit of the show, for me, was this 1992 Williams F1 FW 14B Renault of Nigel Mansell.
A wide bodied C3 with Sebring on its mind.
This one is a bit of a mystery. It's an open wheel Indy car with turbo/Chevy power, perhaps a Team Penske entry?

Holy Hanna! OMG! What scale is that? I don't know anything about these cars, but THAT just might be the best scale modeling detail work I've ever seen! It's a stunning piece of replication. I wonder just how much was fabricated; I simply can't imagine stock-model tooling with that level of fine scale replication.
That has to BEST OF SHOW, best of ALL shows! I'm just shaking my head..... Over-the-top-Amazing!

@rich-sufficool It could be a Tamiya kit @ 1/14 scale or something else @ 1/16, either way, it's fantastic. 😎

WOW, that's all I can say about the Williams FW14B model. The Corvette and Joseph Newgarden Indy car aren't to shabby either.

Nice detail on that Williams FW14B, I don't know if it was your camera exposure or they just got the blue paint the wrong shade but it should be a darker blue than is showing up in the photos. Here is my Exoto Williams FW14B.
